An Apple a Day in a PCOS Diet Really Can Help Keep Bad Things Away
Apples are one of the best items of all to include in a healthy diet because so many benefits kick in from the first bite. This is especially true for those of us with PCOS, who are vulnerable to multiple side-effects like heart disease and the onset of pre-diabetes, which, if neglected, can lead to irreversible type 2 diabetes.
For a start, apples have a lot of fiber (two-thirds of which is in the peel) as well as some potassium and moderate amounts of vitamin C.
Then there’s the high concentration of anti-oxidants, which are nutrients that guard cells against damage from oxidation. The latter process can, in turn, lead to a variety of serious disorders, including cancer and Alzheimer’s Disease.
An apple a day is also a terrific source of flavanoids, such as quercetin (also in the peel), which protects nerve cells from oxidation stress.
